Thread: perltidy tweaks
I prpose two tweaks for the perltidy configuration: - The new perltidy version can avoid writing backup files, so we don't need to explicitly delete them after. - Use option --nooutdent-long-quotes. This is similar to a change we made for pgindent in the C code a while ago. See patch for the results. -- Peter Eisentraut http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services

No strong opinion as to whether to do that or not, but if we do, I wonder
if we shouldn't also select --nooutdent-long-comments. I noticed a few
places where it was doing that (ie moving comments left if they went past
the right margin) and didn't particularly like it.
What would be more per project style is to reflow overly-wide comments
into multiple lines, but I don't see an option for that :-(

Yeah, not a fan of the outdenting, so +1 to both of these. > > What would be more per project style is to reflow overly-wide comments > into multiple lines, but I don't see an option for that :-( > > Right. Maybe we need a script that at least identifies them for us. cheers andrew -- Andrew Dunstan https://www.2ndQuadrant.com PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services
